As of the 2020 Census, the population of the city was 202,694.[1][2] Cabo San Lucas, together with the famous San José del Cabo are collectively known as Los Cabos.

Rated as one of Mexico's top tourist destinations,[5] Cabo San Lucas is known for its beaches, scuba diving locations, Balnearios, the sea arch El Arco de Cabo San Lucas, and marine life.
